However, I will continue working with Administrator Lee Zeldin to ensure the EPA always takes concerns over pesticide safety seriously and continues to do its important work in evaluating these chemicals for safety.

Tenney explicitly restated the promise in an official vote explanation dated April 29, 2026, but this is still a commitment rather than proof of completed action.

EPA released its draft Fungicide Strategy and is inviting the American public to weigh in. ... EPA will continue to engage with stakeholders ... and to ensure the final Strategy is implemented effectively. EPA expects to finalize the Fungicide Strategy no later than November 2026.

EPA took a concrete pesticide-safety action during the lookback window by opening a draft fungicide strategy for public comment and continuing its endangered-species protections work, which is consistent with ongoing pesticide evaluation.

Tenney’s April 2026 statement shows an ongoing commitment to work with EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin on pesticide safety, but it does not by itself prove that she caused or completed a concrete oversight outcome. EPA’s May 2026 draft Fungicide Strategy and continued pesticide/endangered-species review show the agency was actively evaluating pesticide safety during her same federal term, consistent with the promise’s substance. However, the evidence does not establish that Tenney wrote, sponsored, compelled, or materially advanced that EPA action, so full delivery is not supported. Partial credit is appropriate for aligned same-term agency action plus her stated continued engagement.
